Allegheny recently celebrated its International Dinner, hosted by the International Club. This event has become an annual event on campus– and a celebration of the diverse cultures and backgrounds that make up Allegheny.

For the event, the International Club took over one of the dining halls and cooked for two straight days– not to mention putting on a show featuring costumes, songs, and dances from around the world! Check out our photos from the event here.

We’ll be posting our International Dinner video on this page after the new year. Keep visiting this page for more updates!

Our international students love to travel! This semester, our international students have had the opportunity to explore several locations close to Allegheny. So far, they have visited the Crawford County Fair (right here in Meadville), the nearby city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, & the world-famous Niagara Falls in the state of New York, among other places.
